Y. nug. l i ly FACTS vs. PREJUDICE 1'rcjudice is hard to combat. It cannot be overcome in a day. Morethan likely it wasn't formed hastily. Indeed it may have been Rradually strengthening its hold for years. Forinstance, some folks believe Rheumatism cannot be cured. Their fathers believed so beforethem. So did their grandfathers: Now, RHEUMATISM CAN BE CURED, notwithstanding this prejudice, but the trouble is to make people think so. The only way we know to meet popular un belief is to state the PLAIN FACTS, and then present the POSITIVE PROOFS that they are facts. It is a fact that the RUSSIAN RHEUMATISM CURE not only relieves but banishes Rheumatic Tain. There is positive proof of it too. It comes from those who have suffered untold agony with Kheuntism and have been com pletely cured by this remedy. AH who have tried it have had this experience. Some of them permit us to print their testimony. It makes quite a little book, which we send free to any who arc interested enough to ask for it.

Ool Words. SliLECT STORY. A WOMAN'S EEVENQE. Madge Ilcathcoto was tho only daughter of a widow, whoso income was so vlunuer that she was clad to find ac commodation during the warm months for one or two city boarders. Tho summer in which our story opens their oniv Hoarder was uuy 1 ravers, a wealthy young man, who had taken board with Mrs. Ileathcote in the quiet littlo village of Glcinnore for three months, which time he had spent in teaching Madgo Heathcoto to lovo him. Had any one asked him ho could not havo told why ho had dono so, unless was lor amusement; her artless mno concc was so, refreshing and and ell, Jlatigo ileatlieote, "that tall.awk. anl girl, who would havo been posi tively ugly but for her magnificent black eyes and luxuriant dark wavy hair,possessi!d a greater charm for Guy ravers than older, tairer women had ever done. Then after three months of perfect happiness to poor Madge, ho told her was going away, going, perhaps niiver to return ; ho said sho had mado the time pass very pleasantly during his stop in tho village, and when ho re turned to his city home,he should often ecall "tho pleasant days aud tho mco tlio "irl at Glenmorc. That was all ; lie hud held her in his arms and kissed her sweet red lips a hundred times ; ho had told her over and over again that sho was tho only woman ho had over loved; nnd now ho as going back to his city honie.whcro lie would condescend "to think some- mes of the nico little cirl ho had left bohind him at Glenmore." Guy Travel, with his handsom'o looks and soft, honeyed words, had broken the heart ot many a sweet girl beforo ho had met Madgo Ileathcote, but none of them had over repelled him with tho scorn and contempt that blaz ed from her dark eyes as slio said : So this is tlio end I 1 was foolish to havo expected anything better from yon, 1 Btippose t "What did you expect of me, Madge ?" ho questioned. "You surely did not think I was Koine to marry on ; if you did, 1 must say I am sur prised at your lack of iudement." 'uuy 1 ravers, l expected you to act as an honorable man : that was all What right have vou to win my love t you tio not intend to marry mo T Madgo I lie went over to where she was standing and attempted to put his mm around hir in the old lond wnv but sho repulsed him angrily. "Madge," ho repeated, "it you love me, darling, why do ynu speak in ibis cruel way 1 1 in very lond ot you, littlo one in leen l am and would not hurt you by word or deed for anything in tho world j you know that. Hut, mv darl ing, you forget how different aro our stations in lite. Lcavo mo !'' she exclaimed. "Never let me sco your cowardly faco again 1 TI.. 1 f... 1 I. I.!.- 1.... jin lanuiiKu nuiaiy uiu uneasily. 'Madge, bo leasouablo : you do not know what yon aro Baying, my child 1 havo dono you no harm. Mo, sho answered passionately, "you havo done mo no harin; you havo only broken my heart ; but that nothing. What dtllerenco can tho breaking of ono heart, moro or ets. make to handsomo Guy Travcrs t Guy Travels,'' sho continued, turning fieice- ly toward him, "you came hero this summer for your pleasure ; and for our amusement you have wantonly iroken my neait and spoiled my whole life. Hut I declare to you this day that as you nave mado me suitor, so you shall stiller. Tho God of widow and orphan will never let go unpunished." tho you bho turned quickly liom him with these word. "-Madgo 1 Madgo 1" ho called. "You will not go without saying good'by 1 i.et us at least part as iricuds. ' Sho turned her palo faco toward him lor u moment as bho scornfully echoed "Friouds 1 Friends 1 Guy Travcrs, am your bitterest enemy, henceforth and forever !'' uuy u ravers pulled Ids dark mus tacho hercely, for in his way ho lovei una prouu gin wno now cast nil friendship nsidu with suoh contempt "Well," he said slowly, "I supposo tins is mo outi.

That night and for many others Madgo Ileathcote tossed in a raging favor brain fever as tho doctors pro nounced it, nnd travo small hopes of her recovery. Mrs. Ileathcote, Bitting by her daughter's bedside, learned from her delirious ravings all that her chihl had suffered in silence. Six weeks did Madgo Ileathcote struggle against death, and linally camu out victorious. Hut an she began tho plow approach to health, her mother, worn out with anxiety, grad ually weakened, and in threo months from tho day Guy Travere had left them, Madgo was an orphan in tho world. "And for all this,'' sho said bitterly, "I have to thank Guy Travcrs.'' Then, with the few dollar remain ing afte.' all debts were settled,and her first lovo letter in tho purst, sho left her nativo village forever. Tho villag ers shook their heads and looked gravo whenever Madge Ilcathcoto was men tioned. Weak and weary Madgo Ileathcote arrived in Now York, after a journey of sixteen hours. Tho next morning after a scanty breakfast, sho started to find her old music teacher, in tlio hope that lie would be able to aid her in ob taining pupils ; but her heart sank wtitn, arriving at her destination, she was told that Professor Schwartz had been dead moro than a year. What was she to do now 1 Sho wont from place to place, but without any success whatever. Sho was a stranger, alono and friendless, and in all that great, grand city theie was no place for her. "I will mako ono moro effort," sbo said. "I will go to tho great Signor do Lanza and ask him to aid me, aud if I fail again I can but return to my poor lodging and mako a fresh start to-morrow. Asking the first policeman to direct her to tho resilience ot tho protessor, t-he started tttither. Signor do Lanza listened attentively while sho had told him tlio sad history of her poverty and utter friendiessnoss and her auxiety to earn an honest living. When sho had uuishcd horequested her to let him hear her play, and seat- K liersolt at the piano alio played a brilliant fantasia, whieli ho pronounced well done. Well, she said. ".Let me Bing something for you ; I want to know it ou think 1 can earn my living with ' voice." Then,after a fow preliminary chords sho sang, with great expression, Home, Sweet Home.'' Tho professor isteneil breathlessly, tshe began tho second verse and as tho recollection of her dear old homo and mother sho had lost came back to her, she burst inlo tears, and her head sank upon tho keyboard. Do Lanza was deeply moved, llo went over to her, and lacing his baud kindly on the bowed head, said earnestly : Signorma, you aro friendless ; let mo be your friend ; comu and mako vour homo with us. I have a voung laughter who will bo delighted to havo a companion about her own ago, and Signoriua, listen iu five years that magnihcent voice.

"As suro as that you ami i aro in this room ; that is, of course if you will put yourself entirely under my management," lie answered. A glad look crept into tho woary black eyes, slight color into tho palo cheeks, as sho repeated over and over agnm to herself : A tortuuo in hvo vears I It is a long time, but I can afford to wait. "You really must go to tho opera to night, Guy ; I don't believo you havo heard Viola do Lanza yet ; all New York is raving over her. Sho is quite the fashion. Guy Travers had uist returned from a three-years' tour on tho Continent. lie had torgotten nil about that little episode in Virginia five years ago. In looks ho had not altered ono iota, but was tho Bame handsome, careless fel low and all his dear fivo hundred friends wero glad to welcome him homo'ngain. "W ho is she this Viola do Lanza?' ho answered in a careless tone. "I do not remember of hearing of her abroad. "No, sho is n now star from Italy, believe.

'All right, 1 II go with you aud seo your divinity, ' said Uuy, l hat night tho opera house was crow. dod to excess. When tho singer ap peared in all her rogal bcautv sho was wildly applauded, and Guy Travers, as ho looked at the gracolul, rounded tig lire, tho dimpled white arms, tho Bhapo ly hands ami tho glorious blaok hair piled high on tho proud head, littlo thought that this queenly woman was mo girl wait whom lie had trilled ko heartlessly five vears beforo, The oporn over.

"llio Hgnonna was vory sorry, but sho was too mucl , fatigued," eta For thrco weeks Guy Travera was tho first to enter the opera house and tho last to leave it each night ; and al though his friends often chaffed him about being hard hit, and remarked his worn, haggard face, ho was not tho man to give up while there was llio laintcst shadow ot a chance to win. On Viola tin Lanza ho had staked his all, even though it was reported that sho was betrothed of Sir Manrico Conway, a wealthy baronet. At last fortune lavorcd him. At a grand dinner party ho met her, and was supremely happy, ftlio said she was delighted lo meet him, as she had seen mm ho oucn nt the opera-house, but, of course, sho did not know that he was "the Mr. Travers whom Mr. Mordaunt wished to present," and she was so sweet and gracious that ho was moro infatuated than over. Tho day she had so longed for had come at lust. Foi' moro than fivo years sho had waited, aud now sho would pay him back in his own coin. Sho in vited him to call on her whenever ho had nothing elso to do," nnd sho would always mako him welcome. After this ho was always near her; io walked with her, drovo with her, aud for thrco months ho was her de voted slave. During this lime ho often saw Sir. Maurice, but ns Viola did not seem to notice him much he did not consider him a rival. One evening ho told her how dear she was to him j how ho worshiped her and how, If it would serve her, ho would gladly lay down his life for her dear sake. lie took tho dimpled hand and smothered it with kisses ; then he ex claimed "Viola, my datling, until I saw you I never met a woman for whom I cared otio iota.

"My early life would bo scarcely in teresting to you, Guy as it was a very sad one," she replied ; "aud my career in public ends with this month. Aud you," sho declared, "have told mo noth ing of yours. Come, Guy, I am your confessor to-night. Is thero nothing in the past that you regret?" "Confession is good for the soul,'' he quoth gavly.

"Viola, when will you ho my wife?" "I" will give you my answer to-morrow ; I will write." Then, as lie could not induce her to say any more ou tbo subject, he took his departure.

At last it came, lie snatched it pas sioualely, kissing the superscription over and over again; then ho opened it, and out fell tho old letter ho had sent to the "nico little girl at Glenmore."

Tho apologists for tlio late Edwin 1U. Slnnton hnvn nrlnntr.ii nn inrrnniniis lint vrrv unfair niidhod of condufdinrr tho disnute which has recentlv arisen concerning him. They invariably link his name with that ot Lincoln and as- fciimo that every aspersion cast on the late Secretary of War implies a censure t the lamented 1 resident. 1 his is an impudent assumption that tho friends 1 Lincoln ought to resent. JSouo ot tho, other members of the great War Cabinet ever attempted to shield them selves behind tlio character of Lincoln, and thero is no evidence that Stanton moro than the others is entitled to tho protection which tho reverend name affords. There is probably no intelligent man in tho country whoso mind is clouded by tho shadow of a suspicion against the integrity or thu patriotism ot Lin- com. llo was amiable, honest, tiuse fish and patriotic. During tho period ot tho war there wero those who doubt' ed the wisdom ot Bonie of his acts, but no ono ever attributed them to other than sincere and honest motives. He was without malice, broad minded, free from prejudices, and his personal tint! pathies and antagonisms wero cxclud en irom thu consideration ot every publio question. If Mr. Lincoln had any enmities thoy wero set aside when matters ot public impoitaucu were con Bidercd, nnd the character of a man with whom ho didn t agree was as safo in his hands as it thoy wero fondly attached to each other, The Secretary of War was of another and inferior type. Consumed with tlio fires of bigotry, his acute mind was jaundiced with hatred of all thoso who tailed to pay lum ob.sequious couit He craved patronage of tho cringing sort, and hesitated at no measure of puuishiuent for thoso who held their IliatlllOOtI nbOVO Ills methods. Human life was a tritle iu his mind compared with Ins personal aggrandizement, and tho country was put in jeopardy when it was necessary to accomplish his plans ot personal dominance. Lincoln was lovable, Stanton dospioablo. Thero was nothing in common between them and when any ono attempts to shield Stnnton'a enormities behind tho memory of Lincoln, ho outrages every eenso of propriety and decency.

UOU1IT3 01' 1114 ouii.t now IO MAKK Til KM !IKNi:ncIAU Wo nro ill receipt of two communi cations for publication, ono from Hloonnburg, the other from Benton, relating lo the arson caso from tho latter town, for which Isaac Waltman was arrested, convicted and sentenced to thu Kaslern penitentiary. Wo do clino to give them spaco In our col umns, for thu reason that tlio wtiters fail to furnish any new testimony, but each ndvances a theory of Wnftman's innocence from their own view of tho case. Notwithstanding the fact that tho case was a very peculiar one in many respects, his conviction having been brought by purely circumstantial evidence, and that, t-io, in the entire absenco of any known mollvo for tho commission ot ihu crime, if he is guilty which the court and jury says ho is ho baa only gotten his just deserts. We care not who the man may be whether relative, friend or stranger lo us if ho violates the law of tho laud ho deserves to bo puninhod for it. Waltman severed his connection with this office on tho i!0th of Decem ber last, but while ho was in our em ploy we found him a man of Btrict honesty, integrity and sobriety. Wo have known him for thirty-fivo years, mid in all that time never heard aught against him, aud wo aro inclincd.thcre fore, to believe him innocent of the crime ior which lie is now Buffering. If he did commit the offenso wo aro unable to divine his motive. Tho pro perty is owned by J. A. Uuckwalter, of Montgomery county, who is an en tire slranger to Waltman. The deed was executed beforo Equiro W. C. Miller, of this place, in May, 1885,and delivered to tho purchaser. Wo fail to learn that Wallma ncould havo been benefitted by tlio destruction of tho property in any manner whatever, but in the absence of any insurance upon it, its destruction would not only havo entailed a heavy loss upon tho present owner, but many other buildings around it would also havo been con sumed. For the benefit of thoso who aie moving in Waltman's behalf we have to say that more newspaper dis cussion or speculation ou his caso has no merits; if thero is ayy new evidence or light lo be thrown on tlio matter, the proper place to use it is before tho pardon board, which now alone has tho power to act in the premises.
